| Reverse description | The reverse displays a bold multi-line Arabic inscription in the central field, naming the dual authority of Ottoman Sultan Abdulaziz and Tunisian Bey Muhammad III al-Sadiq. The Hijri date 1289 is inscribed in Eastern Arabic-Indic numerals beneath the main legend, separated by a horizontal rule. The entire text is enclosed within an elegant wreath of olive branches tied at the base with a decorative floral knot, consistent with the artistic conventions of the Tunis Mint during this period. A fine milled border frames the outer edge. |
